    I didn't say to vote for either. But you automatically got hostile and picked a side. Not going to say smartest in the room, but I've got a feeling my spoon might be a little sharper than yours :)
    Which side did I pick? It's funny that you assume that I'm a Clinton supporter. I simply asked what makes trump a better choice without mentioning Hilary clinton . Certainly a person of your intelligence can come up with 1 redeeming quality.

    Well since the Trump thread filled up with 3pages of nothing but babble I will put this here too.

    I'm surprised Trumps' people haven't dug this up yet.
    Please turn your attention to these two links

    “...is based upon the application of certain basic truths: that integrity is all important, that your word is your bond, that if you owe a person money you pay him back, that you work hard, enjoy what you do and show a loyalty to those with whom you work and do business. He instilled in me simple, clear cut values and a will to succeed"

    and
    Michelle Obamas plagiarized paragraph from pg91 of this book.

    PJF... Your word is your bond is a common phrase. The adjective 'hard' in front of work is as common as saying 'long' in front of 'day'. So no, Michelle's was not. Using an adjective and noun together does not equal plagiarism on its own.

    Melanie's problem is that It was essentially two complete sentences that has created the firestorm. And if it wasn't plagiarism, then why did her speechwriter apologize?

    The thing I love about Trump is that even though his quotes get messed up the message gets through.

    Okay... Whatever you think, so long as you stop trying to draw false equivalency between the two speeches.

    I know that you want a real conservative to debate but could you at least answer did Michelle Obama plagiarize parts of her speech?

    I think Michelle and Melania both plagiarized Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven"- not only the lyrics but also read their speeches in a similar meter as the song and which were both reminiscent of melody of the song's intro.

    It's absolutely acceptable to rip off led Zeppelin... After all they ripped off American bluesmen. ;)

    the first form written and recorded music was Classical music, but the black man had the blues and the guitar man got famous.......inspiration goes back a long way but nobody did it like Howlin Wolf or (one of my personal favorites) Bo Diddley. Rock N Roll is a creation from the blues but in my opinion it's not the blues..the Rolling Stones are credited as being one of the great blues bands but to me it's Rock N Roll heck Bo Diddley is Rock N Roll if you want to hear the blues....real blues you have to go back a little further and listen to the masters of Blues Music.
